Top developers can have a life outside coding

As developers, do we really need to code all day? Is it necessary to have side projects and participate in open-source? Belén Albeza doesn’t think so. He shares why having a life away from coding matters and why you can be a passionate developer nonetheless. It’s important to have a balance between your computer time and other life activities (to help gathering data on this matter, please fill out this survey please) , and that’s also the message we have to send across to new developers. You can do great coding in a normal workday.
